Can you really “master” Excel in just 2 days of training? You bet you can! This is training at its most efficient and effective. You will learn how to create spreadsheets; input data; perform mathematical calculations; develop workbooks; edit cells; and use formulas, functions, Wizards and much more — all under the watchful eye of your expert trainer.

This is the kind of real-life, practical experience that lectures or book learning alone just can’t deliver. This fast-paced, intensive journey through Excel’s exciting capabilities — combining lectures, trainer demonstrations and group discussions — will develop your Excel skills like no other seminar.

“Computerless” training makes every moment count! You can learn more in less time with our dynamic hands-off teaching approach. You’ll be able to concentrate and learn without being slowed down by keyboarding or having to wait for the entire group to catch up. (And doesn’t a day away from the computer screen sound great?) Every key point and significant Excel operation will be displayed on a large, viewer-friendly screen. Once you’ve returned to the office, you can try everything you’ve learned at your own speed and convenience with the techniques summarized in your complimentary workbook.

Learn from Excel experts!As professionals in a variety of technology-related fields, Fred Pryor trainers bring years of real-world experience, insider knowledge and technical expertise to the Pryor family of training courses.

You may rest assured that our trainers are highly qualified experts who know their topics inside and out and — just as important — they possess the patience, ability and know-how needed to successfully educate others. We hand-pick the Microsoft Excel experts who are the most qualified at all levels to train our clients … and we guarantee an enjoyable, fast-paced learning experience that delivers everything we promise.

You could spend 3 days, 4 days — even a week — attending an Excel training course of this caliber …But why would you? This course is carefully designed to deliver the most information in the least amount of time. Through research, interviews and client input, we’ve found that a 2-day seminar is optimal for this type of material — long enough to learn everything you need, yet short enough that your department or organization won’t fall apart without you.

Our expert course designers have distilled the essentials of Excel from books, manuals, CDs, courses, IT experts and of course, their own extensive personal experience. As a result, this training represents the “best of the best” — all of the Excel knowledge you need and none of the extraneous elements you don’t.

Who should attend? This course is perfect for beginners and for intermediate users who want to better understand and make the most of Excel’s many features and functions. It’s also a great supplemental course for advanced users interested in learning additional shortcuts and tips. If you want to tap into Excel’s immense capabilities and take your skills to a higher level, you’ll benefit from this training!

2 days of intensive training that really delivers!

not to Miss this Course:5 Great reasons

Experience an affordable, 2-day format! We’ve designed this seminar from the ground up to ensure that the teaching methods used reinforce your learning experience. Usually, technical courses of this nature cost much more and take more time to complete, but this powerful seminar is a swift, cost-effective way to master Excel. Most important, you’ll retain what you’ve learned and be able to use it back at the office.

Never fumble frantically through an Excel manual again! After you complete this course you can give your Excel manuals away — you definitely won’t need them again! Manuals can be difficult to understand and it’s hard to apply confusing instructions when you don’t have a strong knowledge base. This course gives you a solid Excel foundation to build on, leads you easily through more advanced concepts and sends you home with a concise, information-packed workbook that summarizes everything you’ve learned.

Learn hundreds of ways to work faster, smarter and more effectively with Excel! Master shortcuts, time-savers and quick features many seasoned Excel users don’t even know about! You’ll complete your work in less time, give it a more professional appearance and learn easier ways to access files, speed up data input, utilize the Help system, use keyboard commands, organize related data, take full advantage of the Chart Wizards and much more.

Go from Excel amateur to Excel expert! If you’re tired of delivering lackluster reports, working with boring spreadsheets, wading through tons of data input and moving at a snail’s pace (when you know Excel has more powerful capabilities), then it’s time to go from amateur to expert! This seminar will get you up to speed on Excel’s advanced functions and help you take advantage of the awesome potential of this incredible application.

Take on more responsibility and expand your business horizons! Increasing your knowledge and understanding of Excel will give you an edge in your organization. You’ll be ready to take on more complex projects, share your expertise with others and step forward with innovative ideas and initiatives. As a result, you’ll be rewarded with increased responsibilities and respect — and you’ll be at the head of the line when it’s time for raises, recognition and promotions.
